In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
It's all a conspiracy. Vulturing around Perisic for so long, pissing off Inter with FFP situation and making them not knock off any of what they're asking. Now that we know Perisic is going for 50, 100 for Bale seems reasonable. Put it that way - 3 seasons ago Perisic would've cost 25. Would you pay double on that for Bale? The difference is market is inflated so Bale will go for 100 - double the Perisic valuation.
City?
HAH 2 years ago Perisic cost €16m
Yes. People seem to think we can buy world class players on the cheap. If we dont pay it someone else will.
Not a Pep player
I'd say he is. He's incredibly expensive and not needed after forking out millions already on the same part of the field. Fit's Pep's masterful philosophy.
My point wss if we dont pay big for him someone will. And they might be in our league. Chelsea and city could both buy him.
Is why Mourinho has basically suggested that if he wants to move he needs to go public. All up to Bale really.Signing a star player, who doesn´t want to leave, but is forced out by Madrid´s desire to buy a shiny new toy. What could possibly go wrong?
Would be funny, if Tottenham bought him back. If they sell Janssen/Wimmer, they´d still come out nearly even on the transfer fees.
Please let us not be the suckers to bite for an injury crock that doesn't even wanna leave

in the past 3 seasons, he has missed a total of 48 games
So roughly about 16 games a season on average, although not half a season like you say but still not good at all. That ankle injury is worrying to have missed 17 games during the 16/17 season. It is also likely that his calf injuries are down to that ankle injury niggling him. For someone who is as fast and powerful as him, this is a big risk factor as that is so much of his game.
Wenger - "Yes Dembele is a fantatsic player, we tried to sign him you know"
Yea, seems that way. However, if it were a straight battle between us and Chelsea, I'd be confident.
Looks like we could be heading towards a 3-5-2 formation, which would appeal to Bale, as he wants to play up top/in the hole. I'm guessing this is why we were after AG, as he'd have fit that role perfectly.
You are falling for the hype instead of looking at the situation as it is.
We have a €50M option.... Did you see the line round the block looking for Bales signature? NO? Thats because its not there.
Nobody in england, who could, is paying his wages except us and only Juve would be interested in his price form the usual suspects. But do you really see that happening?
Real want Mbappe and NEED Bale sold to do it and because Barca have now €222M extra, or will have. The clock is ticking on Real.
Its €60M for Bale right now or Mbappe to Barca... What you think Real will say?

Yeah but you can also turn it around and say - he has played a total of 150 matches over the last 4 seasons, so its not like he is invalid either
Not sure I agree with him. Marca said verbal agreement was reached with Monaco for Mbappe. Marca now saying Bale should leave doesn't equal backtracking IMO
I see your point. And I know that people are sick hearing about age in here. But it is not often players are less injured between 28 and 31 than between 25 and 28. Quite the oposite, I would argue.
Must get this player. Him off of Lukaku would be lethal.
Wenger - "Yes Dembele is a fantatsic player, we tried to sign him you know"
All these clubs hashtags do, is feck with. I was like: pretty ambitious these Bournemouth people.
A cheque for 200M. A cheque. Lawyers flying up to Madrid and over to Barcelona carrying a 200M piece of paper along with them. You've got to be kidding.
Tidbit:
Inter Milan hasn't complied with FFP yet. They obtained a derogation until next year to meet the requirements. So, still under the cosh.

I dunno how much he cost 2 years ago, but my point is Bale is twice the player Perisic is, so if Perisic's valuation is 50m, then Bale for 100 seems reasonable.
Ahh yes the might Bournemouth, probobly got more chance at signing him than Arsenal to be fair.
P.S I had to double check it was Arsenal before i posted it, I've been burned before
Mbappe has said i want to play for Real Madrid - no matter what Barca offer he don't want to play for them
Bale, this might sound harsh but he is a busted flush to me too injury prone now, speed was his best asset which once you lose it's gone for good, just look at Michael Owen
If we pay £100m for Bale we would be mugs - ask yourself why they want to sell in the first place , if he was still world class would Real sell?
We just said goodbye to club legend Wayne Rooney and reading these forums most felt he as been past it for the past 3 years
The similarites between Rooney and Bale are obvious they both struggle to beat a man now they have lost their pace - we will end up with a Rooney mark2 on our hands if we sign Bale.
Look at the Wales game against Ireland when Bale realises he can't run past people anymore and
does a terrible tackle on J O'Shea - lucky he didn't get a red card for it too
If you are going to pay that kind of money for a player we should go after the next Frank Lampard in making and that is Dele Alli - of course Spurs would want a lot, lot more than that for him but at least you would be getting a young goal scoring midfielder with years ahead of him
I think Sir Alex said he is the best young player since Gascoigne, can't get much higher praise than that

Official Statement from Barca.
I'm beginning to think Spain is full of lemon and lime trees with how bitter they all are.
If Neymar goes to PSG, football died.
Robben and Sneijder were sold by madrid, it doesnt mean they weren't world class.
The only reason why Real are considering selling bale is because Mbappe would be starting every game.
If we can manage to keep Bale healthy (maybe by dropping some of that muscle mass) he could lead us to titles.
As for Delle Alli? Dont want him, he would relegate Pogba to a deeper role in the midfield and that would not get the best out of him. Not only that...Spurs wouldn't sell us Dier and you seriously expect them to consider selling us Delle Alli?
SAF also said Jones could become "the greatest player in Manchester United's history", it doesn't make it true.
Who WILL?
Bale is no robben and Schneider. He is a tipical speed merchant who'll regress soon.

"As such, the Club will pass on to UEFA the details of the above operation so that they can determine the disciplinary responsibilities that may arise from this case"
Ru-Roh.
Excellent points. I think a bit overstated, a fit Bale would be good for a couple of seasons, but the prices quoted - even nowadays - are way overcooked.
The worry is that his injury numbers Seam to be on the rise therefore his physical deterioration is increasing
